I'm going to play along with airingmylaundry today as I tell you what items/events/activities I missed but didn't lose sleep over.
It's OK that sometimes I accept that the weekend went by too fast then two days into the new week I want to fast forward back to it.
It's ok that Starbucks has another new drink called Maple Pecan. I haven't tried it but, whether I do or don't I'm still good with pumpkin.
It's OK fall is here. We need a buffer between extreme heat and extreme cold. I do like the warmer clothes and love to see the new leave colors.
It's OK that Cadillac unveiled a hands free car because once my teen starts driving I will be hands free too and it didn't cost me even half as much.
It's OK that I woke up on a Saturday for a (new to me) 8 am class at my gym pool! Partly because I like the teacher and the other half because I thought someone I knew would be there. She wasn't but I still liked it. So it's OK to workout alone! The moral of this is try it you might like it!
It's OK that the lawn was mowed and the grass clippings went all over my truck. It will rain soon and wash it all away. My son insists on spending money to take it to a car wash because it's filthy!
It's OK to try new food you may like it. I always get chicken and rice at the Chinese restaurant. Maybe shrimp fried rice but usually a chicken rice combo. I tried shrimp pancit and really liked it!
Now it's your turn. Tell me what your OK with? Are you OK with the weather and temperature?
love this post! I am so okay with the weather lately, it has been cooling down in AZ and that means we can finally start enjoying fall!
ReplyDeleteThat's a good point. When the weather changes it makes the days a little more bearable.
DeleteA little colder breeze will be okay fo me. Am just not sure about the winter! Lower than 19celcius freezes me.
Deletehaha this made me giggle. I need to do this in my life when things are not going my wife. I am ok with having to head back to work tomorrow...(Ok I'm not but I am really really trying to be OK with it)

You need to try the maple pecan latte though, it's way better than the pumpkin imo! ;-)
ReplyDeleteI will try it behind the pumpkins back but, I will try not to enjoy it.
DeleteI enjoyed reading this post!! I'm OK with the weather lately even though it has been hotter than average for this time in September. It will cool back down to normal by the end of the week so the high 80s and 90s won't last forever! There's been no rain so we've been able to enjoy going outside!
ReplyDeleteRose,
ReplyDeleteIt's nice to meet you through "Hey, It's Okay". I'm with you we certainly need an in-between break in the extremes. East Tennessee generally has a moderate climate but living her all the time we notice the extreme peaks and summer isn't done yet. Maple pecan sounds good but then I love maple. I won't turn down pumpkin spice but maple pecan...MMM, would call my name! Chinese food, YUM! We usually get Shrimp Fried Rice and Kung Pow Chicken (spicy but delicious). Now, I want Chinese food. I wonder if there's a place at 5am in the morning I can get some? lol Nah. Oh well, "Hey, It's Okay" cause I can wait. Have supertastic week!
Haha Cathy!I hope you get to that Chinese soon! We get in before 4 because that's when the lunch special runs too.
DeleteI always enjoy trying new food, that's for sure.
ReplyDeleteI'll try the Maple Pecan drink, but I think pumpkin will still remain my favorite.
Totally agree with the weekend thing! It's okay that it's an eternal summer in Singapore because we have fans and air conditioners! :)
ReplyDeleteI love this post so much!!! Sometimes we all need to hear it's ok... Btw that latte sounds freaking amazing!!!!! Shell
ReplyDeleteI really love your post! So positive! I am ok hanging with my two years old daughter alllll day everyday since she was born because I know that soon enough she will start school and I wont be seeing her that much anymore!
ReplyDeleteYes! I enjoy spending all day with my last child because everyday is a little bit different.
DeleteI'm not worried about Starbucks either! But Pumpkin anything is amazing!!
ReplyDeleteI haven't tried Maple Pecan. We don't have that flavor in Starbucks Philippines. I would love to try Pumpkin since it's Autumn now and it's pumpkin season!
ReplyDeleteIt's for a limited time here, so I may taste it before it's gone.
DeleteFor me it's OK that fall is here but it's not OK that I went back to work and I miss my baby.
ReplyDeleteI agree with you - no point wasting money on car washes when the rain will come soon and wash away those grass clippings! X
ReplyDeleteThank you!! Paying for that drives me up the wall. Its on a short list of things I won't pay for.
DeleteIt's always okay to try new food.I always do that,but sometimes I fail. :) I really enjoyed reading this 'Its Ok' post..
ReplyDeleteI am loving the colours of autumn that are coming out at the moment, I drove to the city yesterday and the colours we amazing.
ReplyDeleteI love fall so I'm happy the seasons are about to change! We're in the middle of an unseasonal heat wave which I'm not OK with to be honest. I'm ready for fall outfits and hot chocolate
ReplyDeleteI am yet to venture out to starbucks and get my fill of the new coffees they have.
ReplyDeleteI adore Airing My Laundry!
ReplyDeleteAlso, I have it on my list today to try the Maple Pecan latte. I know they said it would be September 22nd or so, and I had forgotten. The topping looks amazing!
I agree that sometimes you have to accept the fact that it is okay that the weekend went by way too fast. For me, I am okay with Fall coming because I am tired of the heat.
ReplyDeleteLOVE This! I can't say "Hey its ok" enough! Such a great thing to let things roll off your back.
ReplyDeleteThere are so many great things about this. Honestly. I love that we can all share what's ok. I am ok with this weather. VERY ok with it.
ReplyDeleteI want it to be cooler weather again. I'm itching for it! Kinda tired of the heat to be honest.
ReplyDeleteI'm okay with the fact that we are reaching hot 30degrees here at the moment. It means I can go for a swim! I wish our coffee places did such interesting coffee flavours. I am a huge caramel fan!
ReplyDeleteFor me, its okay to experience the monsoon season for the next few weeks. Its my opportunity to wear my fab raincoats and colorful rain boots :D
ReplyDeleteIt's Okay to have a cheat day when you diet. We all deserve a day to do what we like. ;)
ReplyDeleteHaha I agree with you! I am gonna stick with the pumpkin as I know it is delicious ! Maple pecan who am I right?
ReplyDeleteUnfortunately the weather hasn't really changed much here although it is a bit cooler than the extremes. Fall is kind of a strange time here as we may be cool or super hot. I never know. Almost every October we get into the 90s at some point. And extremes usually bring on colds and illness which aren't fun. Plus fire season has started here now, also not fun.
ReplyDeleteI know Fall is technically here, by it sure doesn't feel like it yet! Where I'm living it's been 80° and 75% humidity for the last several weeks!
ReplyDeleteOH my gosh, I didn't know that Cadillac unveiled a hands free car. I want one, lol. I have been trying more new foods lately and that doesn't always work out well but sometimes I surprise myself.
ReplyDeleteOmg a hands free Cadillac?!? As cool as that sounds... I’m scared of hands free lol....
ReplyDeleteI absolutely love that Fall is here. The weather is not fully cooperating but maybe it will soon!
ReplyDeleteIt's definitely okay to work out alone sometimes. Honestly, it's some times better that way so you aren't distracted.
ReplyDeleteLove the fall season too! And definitely looking forward to cooler weather!
ReplyDeleteEverybody loves the cool-down of fall and the Cozy feeling that it brings. I'm checking out more on that hands-free Cadillac, that sounds so cool.
